- Go to RTSUtah.com to log your reading days each week ASAP but by Friday at the latest. (OR if you have no access to internet, record parent initials and the title of the book inside of the October calendar inside your planner.)
- This is a 3 day week, since Thursday & Friday are part of “Fall Recess.”

Click on this link to sign up to come and/or to donate supplies for the party:
